Burgeoning Belly!

Well Belles little belly is def. starting to show now, my poor little girl had such a slim figure! Will have to look at celebrities diets for her to try get back into shape lol

So here is her belly today - also Belle was wormed today as per vet recommendations! Stuck in cooked chicken chunks, its the easiest feeding of tablets to an animal I've ever had lol


All chilled out on the sofa - Belle is very laid back/docile, which will hopefully counter Elwoods crazy lol


Gary also bought Baby Belle Harringtons puppy kibble, its so tiny compared to the regular kibble lol



Right, will leave it a couple of days and update when Belle starts to show a bit more - unless something exciting happens :D

6 Weeks Gone

As Belle as been officially announced 'up the duff' by a vet today, I've decided to track the progress of my gorgeous girl and also her pups when they are born.

Pups are due November 21st!

Here is a pic of mummy to be - my gorgeous girly Belle


Her 5 week belly




We're all very excited and nervous about the up & coming birth. Next on our to-do list is to get a whelping box arranged (we are getting a disposable one from: http://www.petnapwhelpingboxes.co.uk), then we will need to start sorting through all our old towels & bedsheets to see what we don't mind using as puppy bedding!

Was feeling a bit unsettled by everything & all the information you can find on the internet, but feel much better after seeing the Vet who says Belle is extremely good condition and no reason why we should have any issues when her time is due!

My midwife - Jen (lol):


Elwoods Owner (and future Bellwood puppy mummy) - Chelsea:




Day 28 - 35: The puppies start to look like dogs; toes, claws and whiskers are starting to develop. Puppies are now boys and girls, eyes that were open are now closed (and will be until 10 days after birth)

Day 36 - 42: Puppies become coloured!
